YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
first of all. H>S>F is a complete smoker. they decide to skip the intro on slip and get straight into the jam, which was common in this era, and
...
some of my favorite work by them ever. this was well-deserving of a dave's spot. the entire first set was great, with high points being H/S/F, Minglewood, Masterpiece, Brown Eyed Women, and Cassidy. the second set is smoking as well, the china/rider (especially the jam) is smoking!!! brent is going ballistic on the keys, bobby is doing great work, phil is on, jerry is on, hell. all of the boys are on!!!! while that china/rider was truly something special... it just keeps getting better and better with a smoking LLR into terrapin, which fades into drums/space. the boys weave their way out of space with a exceptionally hot TOO, and then a spectacular dew, before ending it off with an american classic (in my eyes)... The Weight. overall this show is nearly flawless as is most of the tour. definitely recommend this and the next date as listens if you are new to this era. i firmly believe summer 1990 is just a more "developed" and "mature" spring 1990, and the playing + jams seem more experimental. just my two cents, peace and love to you all!!! :)

Monster setlist, with the performance to match
I’ve never heard a bad show out of these big midwestern amphitheaters. Deer Creek, Pine Knob, and Alpine Valley all seem to be real launchpads when it
...
comes to the Grateful Dead and its offshoot bands. I’ve never been to any of those venues, but perhaps someday I’ll be lucky enough to take the trip. True GD heritage out there. Best of the Summer ‘90 tour? You can damn well make the case. They don’t pull any punches here as far as the setlist goes. The ten-song first set is a doozy. A strong Help > Slip! > Frank opener usually translates to an awesome overall show. This is my favorite Peggy-O of all time. Astonishing vocal delivery from Garcia, with Brent showing timeless artistry on the keys. The second set is as good as you’d hope for as you look at the songs on paper. Terrapin Station is almost 20 minutes long! Rather than dipping right into drums, they stretch it out for an extra five minutes of intriguing jamming. This show is Summer ‘90 at its best. It throws its weight around. It’s Phil-heavy. It’s got MIDI. It’s got crunch. The drummers lean into the kits. Brent is flying up and down the keyboard. A spooky The Other One. A thundering Morning Dew. Generally speaking, the Spring ‘90 tour sounds a little more cohesive, exciting, and divine. Afterall, they were starting the new decade fresh. They were busting out fan favorites. They were in total lockstep. Summer ‘90, on the other hand, sounds a little more blue-collar. They had that laid back but kicking summer tour barbecue vibe. They weren’t playing any repertoire tricks. They were simply dishing up the usual summer tour formula, with purpose and grit. It was just another June-July coast-to-coast high-step with their longest-running lineup. Unbeknownst to them, this tour would be the Brent lineup’s last stand. Fittingly, it's an excellent tour, as exemplified by shows such as 7/18/90. Wildflower seed on the sand and stone May the four winds blow you safely home

Best show of summer 90?
I can't recommend this show enough. I'm so blown away. I so wish I'd made it to the Deer Creek shows instead of the far inferior Tinley shows that followed.
...
Even better would have been all 5, of course. I'm actually ready to put this one above even the famous "Rain Show," 7-12-90 at RFK. It just has more than that show, all the way throughout. I'll give you Feel Like a Stranger from 7-12 and take H>S>F from this one. I'll give you TMNS from that night and take Cassidy>Deal. OK, the Dark Star from 7-12-90 is pretty hard to top, but listen to the intricacy of how all the instruments come together on China>Rider and Terrapin>Jam. Then you have the cackling evil laughter to start off a classic Space, an exploratory Other One with Jerry playing with the tonality (throwing in the C of a true E minor scale rather than the Dorian C#), and finally, forget 9-18-87, THIS is the best Morning Dew this side of 5-8-77!!! All that in one show. I missed out on Dave's Picks (sold out quickly), and although this recording doesn't quite match that in fullness of sound and clarity, it nevertheless delivers the experience without getting in the way.

Brent ODs after Tinley Park. Good sound quality (Charlie always delivers). My first H/S/F, and after a slow start I thought I was in for a slow Franklin's, but not so. Very energetic!!

Final Midwest stretch of summer '90 tour kicks off with this gem from Deer Creek. Check out this list! Set one opens with H/S/F followed by a rousing New

Minglewood Blues, a Peggy-O, among others, Cassidy, and a ripping Deal closer. Set two's got a China-Rider to start, LLR, Terrapin, O1, and Dew. Ridiculous. Oh, and that drumz - laughter - is a trip. The Weight encores.

tad short was tight but the 2nd set was really good a better version of China/Rider to open up. then a decently played LLR not really one of my favs but not bad here nice long well-played Terrapin into D/S outta Space is where it really gains intensity The Other One w/ Healy's effects just rips into a steam-building EPIC Morning Dew so sweet a song yet so jamming with lots of emotion easy call for me 5

As we roll down....
This show was absolute *magic* for all that were there.... There was a moment in "Peggy-o" I'll never forget. When Jerry sang the line, "Sweet William
...
he is dead..." there was an odd moment of silence after the verse when *everyone* there was quiet. It was like time itself was standing still. All these years later I'm still in awe over the power the band had in 1990 There's no describing the energy of this evening. Just listen and enjoy.

Just Dew It!
We had friends who went to these shows and they were legendary,this one was of the top five that summer for sure.The first set starts off promising with
...
a highly antiscipated Help> Slipknot!>Franklin's. It starts off alittle rough and shows some rust and is disjonted and the Slipknot! is short too, but things start to gel with a strong Franklin's. The ending is very good. As the set progresses it keeps getting better. Easy to Love you is great and Brent's intro to it is sweet, except for some loose harmonies at the end, it is a perfect summer song.Next up is a sparkingly Peggi-O and really this is when the show really goes up a notch and is the best song of the set. Great versions of the rest of the set, a very audible " We want Phil" chant with Brent playing that "charge" melody is fun before Cassidy. Deal is short and sweet and alittle anti climatic.The audience is mixed in, almost like a maxtrix, and really gives you that vibe of an outdoor show so it is enjoyable to listen to. Set II is the wonderous journey to the inevitable, they raise the stakes considerably and features some special moments.This night really belongs to Phil and Jerry and they play off each other and soar. China> Rider is passionate and well played. LL Rain is a beautiful peak and then a full out Terrapin which is one of the jewels of this set, it really is outstanding. A nice jam out of it into a tribal drums rolls into a space that features a laughing man, yes I remember when they sampled stuff like that. The Other One is very strong with a incredible opening lead by Phil. Healy does some of that those racing affects that get louder than the band, I would prefer he left it well enough alone, but it is a stand out version. Morning Dew is really incredible and quite unique. Brent plays cascading B3 and the middle jam explodes, with Phil and Jerry taking it to a peak and then mutually pushing it to an even higher level.That moment when that occurs is totally surprising and intense. I can't recall a similar moment in any other modern version. The ending is great and Jerrry does a beautiful emotional ending solo. The Weight is great, some slight vocal miscues, with another nice surprise as Jerry squeaks in a wonderful solo during the ending harmonies. First set is 4 Second a 5. Enjoy.
